Hydroponic Supplies
Whether you're running a private tomato
garden, or a full-on hydroponics lima bean factory, it is often
a good idea to buy expendables, such as replacement tips for a
PH tester or your specific brand of nutrient formula, wholesale.
Lets take a look at the top Google entries for Wholesale
Hydroponics.
Canadian Wholesale Hydroponics, while they do have "wholesale"
in their name, doesn't actually seem to sell their products in
quantities greater than one. Special hydroponics light bulbs
must be purchased one at a time. They do, however, waive the
shipping charge if your order reaches over $100 CND -- which,
given the product, isn't hard to do. A 1000 watt light bulb can
run 60 dollars, easily, though they are obtainable at Canadian
Wholesale Hydroponics for about ten dollars under this number.
Aside from waiving the shipping, however, they offer no other
incentive for purchasing in bulk.
LCM Wholesale Hydroponics has a better grasp of the term
'wholesale.' A worm manure nutrient formula, called worm tea,
comes in five gallon buckets (and is normally sold by the pint).
All of their products come in gargantuan sizes, so they are
surely a bit more promising than Canadian Wholesale Hydroponics.
My favorite, however, is the Holland Forge, "Australia's premium
hydroponics wholesaler" which actually sells products wholesale,
to retailers. Just like the name wholesale *should* imply. (I'm
still glaring at those other two sites.) If you're in the market
for buying commercial quantities of high quality hydroponics
gear, and don't mind having it shipped from down under, I would
stop here. Drop an e-mail to info@hollandforge.com.au and ask
how to get a copy of their catalogue. They were quite polite to
my probing, and are a decent lot.
You can also find suitable suppliers through
shopping comparison websites such as Google shopping,
shopping.com, pricegrabber etc.
